Topic: What's your favorite vehicle? (Read 7401 times)

What is your favorite Episode 1 vehicle? I don't own this, but I really like the Naboo Royal Starship. I saw one of these at a flea market once, and man is it huge! It's a bit pricey... the guy was asking for $150 and the box was totally beat up.

I have serious issues with Episode I, it's becoming ever more clear to me. I own zero Ep I beasts, vehicles or playsets.

The movie wasn't that bad, was it? Must discover origin of disturbance within my mind.......

Do you own any EP1 figures?

Yeah, basically all of them. I might be missing a Naboo Royal Security, but I had one, just can't find it. Have all the tough ones too.

That's what's weird about the whole thing. I enjoyed the movie in the theater. I like it on DVD. Sure, Anakin is cloying and irritating, but I can get beyond that. I loved the lightsaber battles. The difference with those between the OT? Wow. Absolutely wow. I wore out that section of the VHS tape.

But...

I did not like the Gungans. Boss Nass was eh, ok. I loathe and despise Jar Jar (yeah, I have all the JJ figs). Captain Tarpals was ok too, but in general, I disliked this aspect of the movie. It was important to the overall scheme and the big battle was a visual specatacle but beyond that, I didn't find the subsequent vehicles to be of much interest.

Queen's starship was cool. But I missed it originally and on clearance and it just costs too much to get it up here (plus I have the droid anyway). I like Maul's speeder. Beyond that, not much interested me.

I traded away both of my Gungan Sub's with Obi. Never owned anything associated with the big battle and thought the space ships, for lack of a better term, sucked.

I really don't know why. I love the vehicles from the classic trilogy. Weird, eh?

The Queens Ship and the Tank are probably not only the two best E1 vehicles but close to being the two best Star Wars vehicles ever - in my opinion. Will Hasbro ever be able to spend as much money on a toy as they did with the Queens ship, ever again? Time will tell.
